🍳 How to Make Breakfast Pizza Flatbread (Step-by-Step)

🔥 Step 1: Preheat the oven

Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Place your flatbreads on the sheet and toast them in the oven for 3–4 minutes while you prep the other ingredients. This step helps keep the base crispy once toppings are added.

---

🥄 Step 2: Prep your ingredients

• Dice the red bell pepper and chop the green onions.
• Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then let it cool slightly and crumble or chop it into small pieces.
• Crack the 6 eggs into a mixing bowl, add ¼ cup of milk, a generous pinch of salt, and a few cracks of black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully blended and slightly frothy.

🍳 Step 3: Scramble the eggs

1. Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
2. Add 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil and let it melt and coat the pan.
3. Pour in the whisked eggs.
4. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for 20–30 seconds, then gently stir with a rubber spatula.
5. Continue to stir slowly, pushing the eggs from the edges toward the center as they set.
6. Once the eggs are just cooked but still slightly glossy and soft, remove the pan from heat.

Avoid overcooking! The eggs will continue to cook in the oven. They should be soft and fluffy—not dry or rubbery.

🧀 Step 4: Assemble the flatbread pizzas

Now it’s time to build the breakfast magic:

1. Remove the lightly toasted flatbreads from the oven.
2. Sprinkle a thin layer of shredded cheese on each flatbread to act as the base.
3. Evenly distribute the soft scrambled eggs across both flatbreads.
4. Add the crumbled bacon, diced peppers, and green onions.
5. Finish with a final sprinkle of cheese over the top.

Note: Don’t overload with ingredients—keep an even layer so everything heats and crisps properly.

---

🔥 Step 5: Bake until bubbly and golden

Return the assembled flatbreads to the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until:

• The cheese is fully melted and bubbling
• The edges of the flatbread are golden and crisp
• Any veggies on top are slightly roasted

Optional: For a crispier crust, place the flatbreads directly on the oven rack for the last 2 minutes of baking.

---

🌿 Step 6: Top and serve

Remove the flatbreads from the oven and let them cool slightly for 1–2 minutes. Then top with:

• Avocado slices
• Fresh arugula
• Drizzle of hot sauce or salsa
• Fresh herbs (like parsley or chives)

Slice into wedges and serve warm!

❓ FAQs & Troubleshooting

Can I make these ahead?

Yes! Assemble everything on the flatbread (except fresh toppings) and store covered in the fridge overnight. Bake in the morning.

Can I freeze leftovers?

Yes—wrap slices in foil and store in an airtight bag. Reheat in the oven at 375°F for 10–12 minutes until warmed through.

Why is my flatbread soggy?

Be sure to:

• Toast the flatbread before adding toppings
• Use a light hand with wet ingredients like salsa
• Don’t overcook the scrambled eggs

What if I don’t have flatbread?

Try:

• Naan
• Pita rounds
• Tortillas (bake for less time)
